No, it's doing two things.
1) giving an edge to smaller states overall
2) making it so that in all but a few states voting is actually pointless to the overall result. Whether you live in rural Wyoming or Los Angeles, your state is pretty much either solid red or solid blue every year so voting is pointless. Only swing states have any potential to actually change the election results.
Also, what is the rationale behind giving the rural mobs an edge in the first place?
